Need advice

[Miau]

I just ordered some parts and need some advice on the memory. I can afford $200 to $250. I know I need 2 1gb dual channel sticks for 2Gb total, but the rest, and where to get it, is a mystery. I also would like to know what the least expensive SLI-capable power supply might be. Here's what I bought today.

Abit Kn8 SLI
XFX Geforce 7900 GT Extreme
AMD 64 3800+ (venice)
ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 64 Pro


This is strickly a game computer, that's why I went with the venice (single core)

Any suggestions?

..I also would like to know what the least expensive SLI-capable power supply might be. Here's what I bought today.Memory choice is based on how fast you will be running your computer, (the FSB, multiplier, and divide you will be using).

Come on, think about it....if there was a "least expensive sli power supply" wouldn't everyone be using it, and wouldn't all the other PSU manufactureres stop selling sli PSUs? And don't you think that different sli setups would have different power requirements?

Go here to estimate your power requirements.

With that information, read reviews and search forums to see what others are using and their comments. And keep in mind the fact that just because the speedometer in a car goes to 140 mph, it doesn't necessarily mean the car will go that fast. Some PSU manufacturers are very "optomistic" in their specifications.
